Numbered 4/30 and hand-signed by the artist, this is an original edition print rather than a later reproduction.

Webb was a London-based printmaker known for her urban landscapes. She studied at the John Cass School of Art and later at the Corcoran School of Art in Washington. A founder member of Camden Printmakers, she exhibited widely, including at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, and her work is held in the UK Government Art Collection.

The composition captures the quiet monumentality of the King’s Cross gasholders at a pivotal moment in London’s industrial transition. Rendered in subtle monochrome tones, the work balances rigid architectural structure with softer organic foreground elements, creating an atmospheric study of memory, place, and regeneration.
